I was extremely enamoured of an American called Rorty back in the day when I did philosophy. From memory it was because he was very pragmatic - very fucking pragmatic, and saw a lot of discourse on metaphysics as entirely meaningless.

It appealed to me after three and a half semesters of actual metaphysics.

Also, still like Epicurus a lot.

If I have to name only one, it would have to be Schopenhauer (I actually have a hard time picking a second place out of Descartes, Hobbes, John Austin, al-Farabi, al-Ghazālī and Kant).

The least favorite is easier - I dislike Husserl. I'd never recommend to read "The Crisis of European Sciences and Transcendental Phenomenology: An Introduction to Phenomenological Philosophy", it gave me nightmares.

The guy invented stoicism. I don't remember his name atm.

Zeno/Zenon.

Thank you.
